Overview

3.2Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) / Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)

We recommend that you use Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) cable. There are different levels of STP cable available, and we advise you to use the best quality STP cable that you can afford. Our non-skew-free cable, Kramer BC-STPis intended for analog signals where skewing is not an issue. For cases where there is skewing, our UTP skew-free cable, Kramer BC-XTP, may be used. Bear in mind, though, that we advise using STP cables where possible, since the compliance to electromagnetic interference was tested using those cables.

Although Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable might be preferred for long range applications, the UTP cable should be installed far away from electric cables, motors and so on, which are prone to create electrical interference. However, since the use of UTP cable might cause inconformity to electromagnetic standards, Kramer does not commit to meeting the standard with UTP cable.

3.3Recommendations for Achieving the Best Performance

To achieve the best performance:

Use only good quality connection cables1 to avoid interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables).

Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely influence signal quality and position your Kramer products away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust
